I like it any way

“Don’t you hate it when you fall in love with a song or a type of music and when you go to share it with someone else, they laugh at you? When they say, “You like who?!?” ” – This is the theme of this week’s Song Lyric Sunday. As soon as I read that line I know the song I am going to play for you all 🙂 Backstreet Boys!!!! Yay!!!
You have no idea how many times people have turned up their noses and made a face at me whenever I say I like a Backstreet Boys song. When I was learning guitar (seems like a lifetime ago, but it was only 5 years ) I wanted to learn the chords for this song so that I can play it while singing. I did manage it a little bit. But then life happened and I lost touch with my guitar. But I still remember this song very well. I can sing it to you whenever you ask me (along with so many other songs). Without further delay, here is ‘I want it that way’ by Backstreet Boys.

Lyrics from A-Z Lyrics
Yeah

You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way

But we are two worlds apart
Can’t reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

[Chorus:]
Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Am I your fire
Your one desire
Yes I know it’s too late
But I want it that way

[Chorus:]
Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Now I can see that we’re falling apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside of me…

You are my fire
The one desire
You are
You are, you are, you are

Don’t wanna hear you say
Ain’t nothin’ but a heartache
Ain’t nothin’ but a mistake (don’t wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say (oh, yeah)
I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain’t nothin but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say (don’t wanna hear you say)
I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a heartache
Ain’t nothin’ but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say (never wanna hear you say)
I want it that way

‘Cause I want it that way
